Home Inspiration Marathon – Perth Design Week
Join us on Sunday 26 March to hear from Perth’s award winning architects on the topic of sustainable home design, in a whole day marathon of presentations of their work, with opportunities for questions from the audience.
Australia currently has the largest homes in the world, and WA among the largest homes in the country – with new houses over 40% bigger than they were 40 years ago.
Over the years the consumer has become convinced that they need four bedrooms, a home theatre, a butler’s pantry, a mudroom and more. But with ever diminishing household sizes, an increasing proportion of single person households, and a rental supply crisis, does this make sense?
You really have to ask do we need all of these rooms and all of this space? Would we be better off in less space just better – and more sustainably – designed?
That’s exactly what these architects are doing. Find out how beautiful, high quality spaces with a smaller footprint can be achieved with environmentally sensitive designs.
